High idle

mustangLX92 · 07-13-2001, 08:53 AM

I know this is a common problem. My idle sometimes goes up to about 2000rpms. When this happens I hear what sounds like a motor running from under the hood on the passenger's side. What exactly is this?

I'm not sure about the noise, but my idle was going nuts for a while until someone on this message board recommended I clean the (2) ten pin connectors behind the intake manifold. One is black the other white. This solved my problem immediately. Good luck.

What did you use to clean them with?
